Had to replace part of the rear cap once... guess you're not supposed to turn too sharply when you're beside something with the generator and both AC units making so much noise that you can't hear it happening...

Just last week we had the Morryde Independent Suspension added to replace the springs, axles and hangers. We arrived at Morryde on Tuesday at noon, first thing they measured then I pulled it in the work bay. Wednesday morning our tech started removing everything underneath and getting some more measurements. Wednesday & Thursday Morryde built our IS system for our rig and then the tech started install on Thursday afternoon. Friday the tech finished the install, did alignment and then we picked up at around 12:30 pm.

I am taking this as a warning to discuss fully with whoever you get to work a complete description of the scope of work and not to make any assumptions. For anything!

Just bought one of these fabric flexible hoses! https://amzn.to/3oZZT8p
It uses little space when stored. I have been using a shorter version for a few years to leave always attached to the tank flush port, tucks out of the way perfectly. I mentioned in a prior post I am purchased a replacement wetbay faucet with one with an integrated quick connect so I will be able to connect this hose quickly and use it when ever I want to wash the windshield or some other part of the bus. Being able to use HOT water on the windshield will be awesome.

I knew mine was in bad shape. When they removed the membrane, there wasn't a good piece of decking to be seen. Glad I had it done. There were a few details I didn't care for in the way it was done, but overall I'm happy. No leaks and lifetime warranty.

Was that last shot what you found under the existing roof?

I've got one piece fiberglass roof on my unit, it's been stored under cover or inside up until July this year.. Soon to be able to get it into my newly purchased "barn"..

What you are seeing is scary! What was previous roof made of>? Did you see any evidence of leakage prior to replacement??

My unit is currently exposed to the North Oregon Coastal envrionmennt awaiting modification to my "barn" si it will fit.. Lots os salty rain!
